If you have abdominal liposuction, can it cause your ALT and AST to be elevated 3 weeks after surgery?

Question

W. John Bull, MD · Answer

Many medication can elevate your liver functions even after a month not just 3 weeks. If these are elevated though, you should talk to your doctor. It can be from anesthesia or a medication. The actual procedure is less likely to cause your labs to be elevated. Either way if something is not right, discuss this with your doctor.

Hello and thank you for your excellent question. If you are concerned about elevated blood tests, I suggest that you follow up with your surgeon directly. Good luck!
